Econo Lodge Topeka at Wanamaker

We loved it because this hotel does not allow pets. My wife and my kids are allergic to pet hair or their smell. Thank you for that policy.

The road to the property was horrible! Had to wind your way around huge holes in pavement.

Arrived for check-in in the evening. Per the hotels.com site, the room we chose was the last one available at this motel. Desk clerk was perfunctory - stressing the things we couldn't do rather than welcoming us to the facility and saying "thank you" for choosing them. Gave us our keys and returned to his seat. Our room was on the second floor. In his full view, we, a 70 year old woman and a 100 lb 50 year old female came in to go to our room. It was then that we were told there was no elevator. No offer from either employee to help us get our bags upstairs. Finally, two young men who'd just checked in with their families helped us wrangle our bags upstairs. Bathroom was dirty, sheets were threadbare, bedcover was stained. If it weren't so late and we weren't so exhausted, we would've left. There was some mystery chunk of brown ice in the refrigerator freezer compartment. We do NOT recommend.

I was in room 129 for 3 nights checked out hoping to be able to head home. But unfortunately things didnt go accordingly to plan and I had to check back in with a new reservation. We ended up with the same room. I paid an extra fee to have my 2 dogs... yet the room wasnt even swept. The pillows still had dog hair on them.....the dead spider in the corner of the room was STILL there. If I would have just checked in that day theres no chance i would be staying in the room until it was actually cleaned. This is disgusting. Staff all seemed very friendly though!

The young person at the counter was very kind and tried to do the best with what he had. When we got to the room, there was water all over the bathroom flloor and there were not enough towels. There was urine at the base of the toilet. The room was clean but had a musty smell like your grandmas house (maybe not yours). In the morning you can forget about eating breakfast because there was not much to pick from. There was some bread, muffins and a waffel maker and the juice was extremely watered down. With all the different choices of hotels in the area, I would not choose this place again.

Hotel is dated and breakfast left a lot to be desired.

Internet connection required constant re-signing in. Very frustrating Minimal breakfast selection Light on only one side of queen bed meant only one person could read a book.

The breakfast was a disappointment

Might as well not even had breakfast area, worst I’ve seen, grabbed black coffee and left

Don’t let the outside looks deter you from this hotel. It looks like a typical motel from the outside but when you enter the lobby there’s a great transformation to a modern hotel. The room was even better. New floors and walls. The bathroom was also all brand new and nicely done.
